Comment (by plmayer):
>Pidgin must focus on it's goal: being a usable IM client.
I completely agree. But you see, "usable" means different things for
different people. I, for example, would like to type longer messages to my
friends than fits the box. So now I have to scroll, which is not
impossible but also not very user friendly.
So, in effect, you're defining here what an "IM" message is and what a
"EMAIL" message is. Whats the count of characters where we draw this line?
Does everybody draw this line at the same count? I'm simply being pro-
choice here - let everybody select what he or she wants, which is
luckily(!) rather easy here.
